Mozart was very musical, in a humane way. We are singing the Laudate Dominum tomorrow in dedication of a chapel. The phrase of that piece (soprano soloist from Bulgaria) is so compelling, that once it pours into a sympathetic hear it rings on for another day and a half.

Personally, I like God's taste in music better than the angels'.

That about sums it up. Bach is pretty profound. Mozart is just pretty. In Sire, Lord and Master of Bach's St. John Passion, there is more spiritual truth than in Mozart's entire output.
